Plasticity in Insect Olfaction: To Smell or Not to Smell?

open access: yesAnnual Review of Entomology, 2016
In insects, olfaction plays a crucial role in many behavioral contexts, such as locating food, sexual partners, and oviposition sites. To successfully perform such behaviors, insects must respond to chemical stimuli at the right moment.

Olfaction on a chip [PDF]

open access: yesSensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2016
Abstract On-chip sensing of physical signals is now relatively straightforward, with on-chip tilt sensors and cell phone cameras now ubiquitous, but sensing of odorants has proven to be far more challenging. A general purpose, mobile electronic nose would address pressing needs in security and food safety.

Superior Benefits of Combining Mepolizumab With Sinus Surgery Compared to Mepolizumab Alone: Results From a Randomised 6‐Month Trial

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) significantly impacts patients’ quality of life (QoL). Standard treatments include nasal irrigations, nasal steroids, systemic corticosteroids, and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).

Self‐Administered Taste Testing Without Water: Normative Data for the 53‐Item Waterless Empirical Taste Test (WETT®)

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), more than 20 million Americans suffer from chronic taste problems. Unfortunately, quantitative testing is rarely performed, self‐reports are inaccurate, and “taste” is often confused with olfaction‐dependent flavors.

Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

Songbirds use scent cues to relocate to feeding sites after displacement: An experiment in great tits (Parus major)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Air-borne chemicals are highly abundant sensory cues and their use in navigation might be one of the major evolutionary mechanisms explaining the development of olfaction in animals. Despite solid evidence for the importance of olfaction in avian life (e.

Correlation of mucus inflammatory proteins and olfaction in chronic rhinosinusitis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy and Rhinology, 2019
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common causes of olfactory loss, but the pathophysiology underlying olfactory dysfunction in CRS has not been fully elucidated.

Dysfunction of the Mesolimbic Circuit to Food Odors in Women With Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa: A fMRI Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
Brain reward dysfunction in eating disorders has been widely reported. However, whether the neural correlates of hedonic and motivational experiences related to food cues are differentially affected in anorexia nervosa of restrictive type (ANr), bulimia ...

Depression, Olfaction, and Quality of Life: A Mutual Relationship

open access: yesBrain Science, 2018
Olfactory dysfunction has been well studied in depression. Common brain areas are involved in depression and in the olfactory process, suggesting that olfactory impairments may constitute potential markers of this disorder.
